“Whatever the case may be, education in and of itself is a necessity of human life, one of the primary necessities of every civilized society. Education has become an honored goal, sought by every individual who wishes to achieve economic and spiritual happiness. This is because education is the only medium which elevates the character of human beings from a low and degraded position to the heights of honor and respect. All individuals have the natural right to develop their abilities to their full potential” (Qasim Amin, ‘The Liberation of Women & The New Woman, Page 14).

I decided to revisit an old poem, changed a couple words and tried some formatting:

This period of trance,A moment of consciousness,Which borders On the edge of life and dreams. Thoughts and obscurity wander freely here, There exists no borders on memory,No lines for time to follow;Feelings melt together and lull my senses into slumber, My eyes, blinking out reality, Letting in light for my imagination,Shutting in crisp detail to chase away stupor.Drifting, floating, simply being surrounded by this fondness,This surreal quintessence,Delving through my heart and swimming up through myself.My head swings down, a tingle, eyes wide, lungs full,A shock back to the figures around me. ...So they call this being awake?

Post and I will:1. Tell you why I friended you.2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.3. Tell you something I like about you.4. Tell you a memory I have of you.5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.7. In return, post this in your LJ.
